Conversation About Epilepsy/Seizure Disorders
With Your Help We Will:

The Epilepsy Foundation, in conjunction with the PA Department of Health, Bureau of Family Health and Special Kids Network of Care are hosting a series of local meetings, lead by parents, to talk with families with children who are growing up with seizures and epilepsy.
